Windows boot automatically to desktop

Under the AD domain account management, I need to set up windows to automatically enter the desktop on boot, and I can't bypass the account password to enter the desktop directly by checking all kinds of information. Some information shows that the following option will appear, but the actual operation is not, after changing the registry and policy and reboot there is still no such option. Therefore, I hope to get an effective method. Also, I would like to ask if it is not working because it is operating under the ad domain account, do I need to operate under administrator to make it work?

    Hi, I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    Click your Start Button, type regedit and hit Enter to open the Registry Editor

    Click View and make sure 'Address Bar' is turned on

    Paste this into the Address Bar at the top and hit Enter

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\PasswordLess\Device

    Please provide a screenshot of that window.
